Kali's Familv Pills are the best Repairing Neatly Done Never thought of such a sign for a medicine did you ? Well, it's a good sign for Scott's Emulsion. The body has to be repaired like other things and Scott's Emulsion is the medicine that does it. These poor bodies wear out from worry, from over-work, from disease. They get thin and weak. Some of the new ones arc not well made?and all of the old ones are racked from long usage. Scott's Emulsion fixes all kinds. It docs the work both inside and out. It makes soft bones hard, thin blood red, weak lungs strong, hollow places full. Only the best materials are used in the patching and the patches don't show through the new glow of health.

An Old Confederate Veteran Burned to Death in Guard House. ' > Special to The State Walhalla, Jan. 21. ? Alfred L. Ballew, a Confederate soldier, ; aired 63, met a horrible fate last . night by being burned to death in { the guard house. Lute in the afternoon he was locked up and at 11 e' lock the guard house was discovered to be on tire. Help came too late and only the chaired form was taken from the debris. It is believed that he set fire to the cell, as the first rescuers found the building burning, the strongest tlumes coming from within, and the coroner's jury so rendsred its verdict. Mr. Ballew came here from Greenville county. He was drinking when locked up. The town buried his remains today in Westview cemetery* Expert safe crackers visited West Minister last night. The safes of T. N. Carter and Peden Bros., were blown open. Abeut $125 vas taken. Officers with blood hounds went there this morning, but ne clue could be found. TRESPASS NOTICE!
